Default What Order Code Is This?

On the picture below, the SportDesign bumper has these areas painted with the body color. I recently saw a 992.1 Carrera T with the same area painted with the body color. However, when I was creating a build sheet at my dealership for a GTS , the build had these areas the same color as the rest of the bumper, and my SA could not find the build code in order to have these areas painted with the body color.

Does anyone know what the Porsche build code might be to get these areas painted? IMHO, it adds a very nice touch and contrast to the rear end.

The fins are colour coded with the sport design package on models other than GTS.
With GTS, you can either have the matt black look or high gloss with the high gloss package.
GTS can't have those fins colour coded from factory. It's one of give aways of a debadged GTS.

You say "debadged". I would assume it is black on ALL GTS'? Is it available on a badged GTS?

Yes, it that way on all GTS examples. But what @CurryPuff is saying is that even if a GTS is debadged (rear badge removed), the knowledgeable eye could still discern a GTS because the SportDesign rear fascia "shark fins" are not painted to exterior color.

I much prefer them painted to match exterior color, as well.

I have received a couple of inquiries on this, so I will add the following. Unfortunately, if you want the SD rear fascia "shark fins" painted to exterior color on a GTS, it will almost certainly require CXX, which, while super cool, is very costly and often causes delays. But even more problematic is that I have been told CXX is now closed for the 992.1. @jdrake - if aftermarket is acceptable, it may be best to have your shark fins removed and color matched after taking delivery. See the figure below (namely, #12; this does not provide the part number, of course, but at least shows the various parts included in the SD rear apron):
